You do not need to have your application or other Registry forms notarized, except for the Parental Consent form.

Except for minor applications, if the department fails within 35 days of receipt of an application to issue a registry card or fails to issue a verbal or written notice of denial of an application, the patient’s applications for a card will be deemed to have been approved.

You need to update your registration and pay another $15 every year, with all documentation, even if it hasn’t changed, including a new signed physicians statement. This should be in 30-60 days before your card expires.

If there has been a change in your address or caregiver, or if you need a replacement for a lost, stolen or damaged card, you must submit a completed Change, Replacement or Surrender Request along with a copy of your photo ID and a photo of the front and back of your damaged card to medical.marijuana@state.co.us. A replacement card will be delivered within 2-10 business days. You are allowed one replacement card for a lost or stolen card during your annual registration period. Additional requests will result in a $15 processing fee.

Keep copies of all of your paperwork.
